Life with Ying: The China Funeral PART 6
http://lifewithying.blogspot.com/2011/04/china-funeral-part-6.html
Thursday, April 28, 2011. The China Funeral PART 6. Ying went through all hell and back in that ShenZhen hospital. I’ve always felt we were so lucky that she was not be maimed or dead from the experience. I’m not one to dwell on such things or ask a bunch of unanswerable questions, but the experience has always troubled me more so than any other in my life. Why did we lose the baby? Why did my wife needlessly go through so much pain and suffering? 8220;They need to come. They are family. I have t...We go...

Life with Ying: The China Funeral PART 3
http://lifewithying.blogspot.com/2011/04/china-funeral-part-3.html
Sunday, April 17, 2011. The China Funeral PART 3. 8221; And whether or not that response was offered up with earnest, I don’t have the answer either. The Zhangjiakou funeral home facade is a mix of China’s typical marble construction with a bit of Greek Classicism thrown in with a smattering of columns and rotundas. There are what looks to be multiple entrances and exits all with marble steps leading up to the doors. Is that for the really busy days? 8220;Do I get one? 8220;OK, so do I wear anything?

http://lifewithying.blogspot.com/2011/04/chinese-funeral-part-5.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. The China Funeral PART 5. I ask Ying, “So what’s with the military style funeral? Mama wasn’t in the military was she? 8220;What was military about it? 8220;Just the guns going off. That’s sort of a salute in the U.S. to fallen military members.”. I thought you guys always did it too. It’s just a sign of respecting. DId you like it? It was just a surprise.”. Who designates this blank tissue paper works in the afterlife? It boggles my brain if I think too much of it all. The China ...

Life with Ying: The China Funeral PART 4
http://lifewithying.blogspot.com/2011/04/chinese-funeral-part-4.html
Tuesday, April 19, 2011. The China Funeral PART 4. For the past 30 minutes I was not sure where my wife went with the “handler.” I peek out of our waiting room and see another group emerging from their services room. Suddenly, FeiFei comes running towards me in her odd shuffling manner I had forgotten until just now. She says in staccato, “Michael. Lei Ying. This way! Mama’s picture is being projected on the far wall. I make a mental note to ask Ying later. Now we must concentrate on getting through ...

Life with Ying: May 2011
http://lifewithying.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 10, 2011. The China Funeral PART 7. The restaurant employees are obviously surprised to see me walk in alone. The hostesses flash big smiles towards me. I look around for any bathroom sign then approach and ask with a smile “W.C? 8221; One understands and one doesn't. I am led directly to it by the one who does. Perhaps, it's finally time to learn where is the bathroom in Chinese. Washing my hands at the sink later there is a surprise. Soap! The eating and drinking went on for 2 hours. W...

Life with Ying: The China Funeral PART 2
http://lifewithying.blogspot.com/2011/04/china-funeral-part-2.html
Sunday, April 17, 2011. The China Funeral PART 2. We awoke around 5:00 AM. Even with the drinking we felt rejuvenated and relaxed. Thank you foot massage. But I wasn’t exactly prepared for the climate still being wintery. We’d had spring-like temps in Austin for a while before I left. The wind was bone chilling exiting the hotel. This early in the morning the station looked closed. Brother pulls in, leans on the horn a few times and a sleepy looking girl in a blue smock emerges to pump our gas. W...Aroun...
